DragonCon Report #6: an hour with Peter David

Just when you thought that this thing would never get posted (and, at several points, I didn't think it would be), it goes up.

Peter David is at the end of every Star Trek track at the end of every year.  He's the last hour on the last day of the convention. The way he told the story one year, someone in charge of scheduling said "Peter David? He's the last person I'd want to see," and random minion wrote down "Peter ... David ... last .... person."

And so a tradition was born.

Anyway this is an hour video.  He starts by killing time with some DragonCon memories, discusses projects he has with Will Smith (a movie called After Earth), his problems with the publishing industry (which suddenly doesn't make me feel so bad), and more.

DragonCon, 2010, Day 4. Peter David and Will Smith

Peter David, writer of stuff, as a few things to say about his latest novelization project.  But it's a little odd, since the movie wasn't finalized yet. Or produced, or almost anything else.



Comes with a surprise guest: Will Smith.
